Not sure what you history is in terms of how long you have been sick or how long you have been treating....if you are relatively new into treatment, you may be experiencing a herxheimer reaction versus a reaction to the actual drugs themselves.

One option is to try to ride it out another couple of days OR you can certainly cut the dosage of your meds down and ramp up again later.

Of course you should probably check in with your LLMD for his/her advice.

Hang in there....it does get easier!!

Yes, be sure to call your LLMD and run this by him/her.

In the meantime, take some activated charcoal or chlorella, or lemon with water.

Feel better soon!! Rifampin is rough stuff!
